Slip
process of plastic deformation by dislocation
motion
Slip Plane

Characteristics of dislocations
The presence of dislocations results to shear,
compressive and tensile lattice strains in the
structure.
associated with the lattice strains are
stored lattice strain energies (about 5% of
the energy imparted during deformation) and
stress/strain fields in the vicinity of the
dislocations.

Edge dislocation:
Compressive stresses/strains in the vicinity of
the extra half plane;
Tensile stresses/strains below the extra half
plane
Screw dislocation:
Purely shear stresses/strains

Slip Systems
Slip Plane preferred crystallographic
planes where dislocations motion occurs
Slip Direction preferred crystallographic
directions where dislocations move
Slip System combination of slip plane
and slip direction
19
Characteristics of slip
Slip is favored on close-packed planes
densest planes; greatest planar densities
Slip is also favored along close-packed
directions
densest directions; greatest linear densities

Deformation by twinning
another mechanism of plastic deformation
movement of planes of atoms in the lattice
parallel to a specific (twinning) plane so that
the lattice is divided into 2 symmetrical parts
which are differently oriented
common for BCC and HCP metals when
the slip process is restricted

Sample Problem
Consider a single crystal of BCC iron oriented
such that a tensile stress is applied along a
[010] direction.
(a) Compute the resolved shear stress along a
(110) plane and in a 111 direction when
a tensile stress of 52 MPa is applied.
(b) If slip occurs on a (110) plane and in a
111 direction, and the critical resolved
shear stress is 30 MPa, calculate the
magnitude of the applied tensile stress
necessary to initiate yielding.

Summary
Dislocation motion in response to a shear stress
causes plastic deformation. SLIP
Dislocation motion is favored along close-packed
planes and close-packed directions.
